Ashtanga yoga with Ann Rose. Nourish and grow with your practice.
Ann Rose McKean
Join Rose Ann for a full week in the beautiful surroundings in Salento, Italy.
15 – 22 April , 2023
Description of the retreat
This yoga retreat is based on the traditional method of learning Ashtanga yoga with Rose Ann guiding you every step of the way. All levels of practice are welcome to attend from complete beginners to advanced students.
We’ll start each morning with Mysore style practice where you will receive individual support and guidance to development and transform your practice.
During the course of the week there will be 3 afternoon workshops where the focus will be on:
Hip Openers: The aim of this workshop is to create space whilst stabilising and mobilising the hip area; flexibility in the hips is key to keeping fit and healthy.
The Mechanics of Backbending: Requires the shoulder and hip flexors to be opened, the quads and arms and upper back awakened. When these parts of the body work together a backbend lengthens and opens the spine.
Arm balancing: In this workshop we will have lots of fun exploring and consolidating your knowledge and experience of postures such as bhujapidasana, bakasana and pincha mayurasana.
There will also be free afternoons where you can explore the beautiful surroundings in the Salento area.
